If there are still people out there who are struggling with this, I have just
gone through the process on Ubuntu, and made some notes as a result.

Great, I'm going to try it on linux mint.
Too bad the makefile is for linux and I have to stick with dsss which is
practically abondoned.
I still don't get why
dmd -lib -O -release
-inline -I.. -I../../srcgl -I../../srcsv -I../../srcgda gtkD.d
completely fails, it spits out a 34 kb executable
